Why Your Website Isn't Generating Leads (And How to Fix It)
Your website gets traffic, but the phone isn't ringing. Sound familiar?
Most service business websites fail at one critical task: converting visitors into leads. Let's explore why—and what to do about it.
The Problem: Design Over Function
Many businesses invest in beautiful websites that look great but don't perform. A website's job isn't to win design awards—it's to generate leads.
Key Fixes
1. Clear Call-to-Action Above the Fold
Visitors should see exactly what to do within 3 seconds of landing on your site. Phone number, contact form, or booking button—make it obvious.
2. Mobile-First Design
Over 60% of local searches happen on mobile. If your site doesn't work perfectly on a phone, you're losing leads.
3. Speed Matters
Every second of load time costs you conversions. Optimize images, minimize code, and use fast hosting.
4. Trust Signals
Reviews, certifications, and before/after photos build instant credibility. Display them prominently.
5. Simple Forms
Ask for only what you need. Name, phone, and a brief description of the problem. That's it.
The Bottom Line
Your website should work as hard as you do. If it's not generating leads, it's time for a change.
